Turn a deploy webhook into a Discord release note

You ship, and then the release note is the thing that never gets written. When your CI or deploy tool hits a Notis webhook, Notis compiles the related Linear work and posts a release note to Discord automatically.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Post message to channel

Sends a message to a specified discord channel (text, embeds, stickers, components, attachments); requires `send messages` permission and one of `content`, `embeds`, `sticker ids`, or `attachments`.

Why this helps

Releases ship without announcement because writing the note after a deploy is the last thing anyone has energy for.

  • Announce every release the moment it deploys
  • Connect what shipped to the Linear work behind it
  • Skip the release-note writeup that never happens
  • Give the team and community a reliable ship signal

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Discordbot to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an Automation named Deploy webhook to Discord release note.
  • 3Write the prompt: When my deploy webhook fires, compile the related Linear work and post a release note to my Discord channel.
  • 4Choose the incoming webhook trigger, then point your CI or deploy tool at the webhook URL Notis gives you and pick the Discord channel for run reports.
  • 5Send a test webhook and confirm the release note posts in Discord.

Questions about this workflow

How do I trigger the webhook?

Notis gives you a webhook URL. Have your CI, deploy pipeline, or any backend send an HTTP request to it when you ship.

Can it include what changed?

Yes, pass details in the webhook and ask Notis to reference the related Linear issues in the note.

Does it need a schedule?

No, it runs whenever the webhook is called.
